This song is scary relevant to my life right now. It is comforting. I like it.

This is REAL music!

Hate statements like these. So much good music out there.

Nice to listen to real music after all the commercial, money driven crap that passes for music these days.

This ain't the lonesome road blues lord lord and I ain't gonna be treated this a way.  Lame.

you are rite that one you spoke of is lame 

+Joe Bazeghi I probably just don't get it, but why is it lame? Compared to who?

Sadly, our masses do not accept good music.

Thanks, I've been looking for an older version of this song. OCMS credits it as "Traditional" so it's possible even Sam Collins was "covering" it, his is just the earliest recorded version.

@prittysaro OCMS and many other groups are crossing genres and mixing them as well.

I think it fits.

Keith Peterson lmao

this is a cover of a original song by sam collins, period.

google sam collins lonseome road blues.

@samuraishrew not bluegrass, old timey

i try to be macho and never cry but this song makes me weep like a little girl. this song should have a warning label. i gotta go get some tissues.

I wonder if that tinny sound in the recording was intentional, it very well could be, knowing how OCMS likes to do things down home style. A wonderful song!

woah hey now. no.

Check out the original by Crying Sam Collins if you like the Crows' version.
